I absolutely LOVED this book.
I was immediately drawn to this title after reading a friend's early review. I am so happy to say that it lived up to, and in many ways, exceeded her hype.
As this is my first J.T. Geissinger novel I was apprehensive on her style, delivery, and overall author-reader compatibility that I've come to find in my most read and well-loved authors. Upon finishing Melt for You I immediately looked up the author's back list - I'm hoping that she will become another well-read and loved author for me. I found her humor … [Read more...]

“If you were mine, Iris, there would be no doubt what position you’d hold in my life. You’d be center. I’d play you at the five.”
Wow. What an emotional ride Long Shot was. I feel emotionally wrung out. But what a painfully beautiful story.
In the last year or so, I’ve stopped reading the synopsis before I read the book. Sometimes I’ll read it after, sometimes I won’t read it at all. I don’t read teasers, or excerpts. I ignore basically everything about a book before I read it because I find that I enjoy stories more when I don’t know what … [Read more...]

I first read Forever Right Now last year. I fell into the lives of Sawyer and Darlene as one does with an Emma Scott book; easily and relentlessly. Frankly, I did not want to leave them, which probably explains why I’ve reread FRN this year and frequently skim my kindle copy to relive my favorite scenes over and over again. Each time feels like finding a $10 bill in the pocket of a winter coat. It’s full of exciting discovery and pure joy mixed with a bit of surprise. How these simple feelings can be brought out by Emma’s easily read prose is … [Read more...]

I’m a little floored by how much I enjoyed Fangirl. You see, YA isn’t really my “thing”. Every time I read it, I love it. But I never want to read it. I don’t seek it out. I don’t crave it. I never think, “You know what sounds good right now? A good young adult novel.” I always read it sort of against my will and only because someone has highly recommended it. But I always end up loving it.
The main detractor for me is that the characters are usually high school age-ish and that was like a lifetime ago. It’s hard to for me (or so I … [Read more...]

To say that I was blown away by Roomies would be a bit of an understatement. I had no idea what I was getting myself into when I picked up this book. It’s possible that the unexpectedness of what I would experience while reading this book is exactly why I feel as strongly about it as I do, but that doesn’t change how much I really and truly love it.
I have loved every Christina Lauren book I’ve ever read. They are an epic romance-writing duo and I usually know what I’m going to get out of their books. They’re always funny and sexy, and can … [Read more...]

Logan and Tate will forever be one of my favorite couples ever. I am both devastated and elated that their story is over. I’m so sad that this is the end, but so happy for them and their happily ever after.
When I picked up the first book in this series, Try, I never imaged that I’d fall so in love with these two stubborn men. What I thought would be a fun, erotic read that would be nothing more than some quick entertainment, turned into one of my most favorite series of all-time.
True is not a perfect book. It’s not a super exciting … [Read more...]

2017 has not been my year when it comes to books. Life has really gotten in the way and I just haven’t been able to read with quite the same voracity with which I’ve read in the last several years. I normally read upwards of 100 books in a year’s time. I’m on track to read 52 this year. I’ve tried all kinds of things to jump start my mojo again, to no avail. Until now. My last read was greatly influenced by a book friend and I loved it! I completely ate it up. So without her consent, I took the liberty of assigning her as my official … [Read more...]

I read this book on a whim after seeing a couple of book friends swooning over it on Goodreads. I didn’t even bother to read the synopsis. I impulsively twitched my One-Click finger and dove in. And I’m so glad I did.
The Wall of Winnipeg and Me started off slow but before I knew it, I couldn’t put it down. I was skeptical of Aiden in the beginning, he was stand-offish and borderline rude. There wasn’t a whole lot there to like in the beginning. But he slowly won me over.
There is slow burn, and then there is this book. Talk about a … [Read more...]

I have nothing eloquent or witty or thoughtful to say. There are so many words swirling around in my head, none of them making sense, even days after finishing A Charm of Finches. This book has completely overwhelmed me. It is rich. It is heavy. It is brilliant.
Suanne Laqueur is a master storyteller. Her intelligence bleeds from the pages. Her characters a gift. Real fucking characters, full of life and nearly tangible. If I were to sketch them they would be gloriously blue and tall and imposing however not in a merciless way. Their … [Read more...]

Most of All You is a book ninja. It’ll get you when you least expect it. Prejudice is a powerful thing, and mine ran rampant with this book. I was absolutely prejudice when I learned that the main character was a stripper. Her hardened personality kind of rubbed me the wrong way and I was pretty convinced there was no way that I could end up loving her.
Wrong. I love Eloise, and Gabriel, and this book so much. Both Eloise and Gabriel have tragic pasts that have shaped the people that they’ve become in their adulthood. While Gabriel’s has … [Read more...]
